To find this answer you need to multiply the percent by the total, in this case 15% times 140. Remember to change the percent into a decimal (0.15).

0.15 (140)= 21

What is the equation of the line containing the points (3, 1), (9, 3), and (27, 9)?

lutik1710 [3]

From the given points that are (3,1),(9,3),(27,9), we can say that x is three times of y. That is

x= 3y

And we need to solve for y. For that, we need to get rid of 3 from the right side by dividing both sides by 3 . And on doing so , we will get

$\frac{x}{3} = \frac{3y}{3}$
